| Bonds = Government and State
bonds were dull and steady.
| Stocks-The same depressing in
huences which affected the stock
market yesterday were again patent
today and the market was dull and
heavy throughout the greater part OF
the day but subject to periods OF &C.
tivity and decided weakness. The
usually active stocks OF known char
ecter were generally we'll held, while
he important losses were in such Sc.
curities as Richmond and West Point,
cotton seed oil certificates, and others
OF like reputation. There was very
little support given the market. The
coal stocks, especially Lackswanna
and Jersey Central, ficst became prom
inent fer weakness aud the rumor
spread that the pools in these stock
were unloading. The cotton oil
trusts pursued the same
course as yesterday and
while tha fluctuations were not so
large their net loss for the day was
equally as heavy. In regard to Rich.
mond and West Point, one story as.
serted that the present management
WAS to be deposed, and another that
the control of the Georgia Central was
now beyond the power of the COM
psny 10 accomplish. The opening was
rather heavy, a majority OF stocks be-
ing slightly under last evenings final
Quotations. Under the buying for ar
bitrage account there were few slieht
advances in the early dealings, but the
entire market soon yielded, jersey
Central showing decided weakness
Tnere wss slight rally toward noon,
but after that time downward move
ment in Richmond and West Point
and New England occurred, and
marked increase in the amount of
BUSINESS done was noticed. The most
pronounced rally Of the day occurred
toward 2 O'Clock p m, bat toward the
close the market again became heavy
and dull, last prices generally b4ing
but little better than the lowest
reached.
